Guild Wars 2

I’d like to request that at least one additional hairstyle be added to human female character creation: a natural-looking African American hair style. All of the existing hair styles seem very Caucasian or possibly Asian. There are lots possible options, ranging from something that is simply very close-cut and near-bald to an elaborate braided style.

The hair styles that you have for the human females are lovely, but none of them reflect the special hair styles that are traditionally associated with someone of African descent.

While you certainly aren’t under any obligation to make the game all-inclusive, I think an addition like this would allow the creation of more realistic black human female characters. I’m sure it would also help at least a few minority gamers make characters that they can closely identify with. There’s also plenty of in-game precedence for it, including lore. There are at least a few stereotypically “black” hairdos available to the men of some races that I’ve seen. In GW1, this was handled well for many of the NPCs in Elona, which is based heavily on African culture.

If you could wait until Elona for GW1, surely you can wait until Elona for GW2.
